Climate change keeps Christine Milne 'awake at night'

C

limate change, Tim Hollo argues in The Guardian, still keeps Christine Milne awake at night.

Former Greens leader, Christine Milne.

He argues that after 25 years of campaigning, Milne’s retirement from parliament is an indictment of how little progress Australia has made on climate change.

“Climate change,” he writes, “defines Milne’s legacy, and points to what she will do next. But it also holds the central message for our politics from her departure.

“While I have the utmost respect for Richard Di Natale and his team, no matter how well the Greens advocate or negotiate, they are a small team up against a Coalition government antagonistic towards climate action, a Labor opposition which still fails to understand the depth of the crisis we face, and a media which struggles to grapple with climate policy,” Hollo wrote.
